Isn't Atollic the one where the free version is crippled so that you can't use printf?

I don't mean that it just doesn't come with a ready-to-run printf, so that you have to make your own - I mean specifically crippled so that it is impossible for you to add your own...

Yes, it is:

''It is common to redirect the I/O from these functions to the actual embedded platform, such as redirecting printf() output to an LCD display or a serial cable ... The freeLite version of TrueSTUDIO do (sic) not support I/O redirection, and instead have do-nothing stubs compiled into the C runtime library.''
